Passenger show

[nicoleslp]

I was wondering if there was a passenger show on the last night of the cruise? For example- Princess has the Voice and Carnival has the Legends show

Royal does have a show on the last night of the cruise, but it's generally not a passenger participation show,  yet.

The end of every port day features the Pier Runners.

That's the only reason I cruise.  I've recently exposed my twin 14 yo grandsons to this perk on a recent Nassau cruise in March.  I think they're "hooked".

On some sailings, the CD organizes a Michael Jackson Thriller show with customers as the dancers.

I have seen this a couple of times. They have rehearsals during the cruise, don't announce it....as the lights go down on the last night, the music starts and the zombie customers stagger in from all directions through the theater gangways to the stage. Usually good fun.

On a few cruises, there has been a Passenger Talent Show.  Haven't seen one in a couple of years.

We only ever saw those on the longer, Transatlantic sailings. Lot's of free time for rehearsals etc.

We've seen "Dancing with the Stripes" a couple of times.  Not passengers, but a crew show.

Recently, on Grandeur we had both Dancing with the Stripes and a Michael Jackson Thriller. Crew danced with guests and the activities staff had Thriller dance classes all week and then the passengers performed it in the Centrum on the last night.

Had one on our transatlantic last November.  It was excellent!  I think they stopped doing them on all cruises when participation dropped.

I consider Quest a passenger show, and the best show on board! It is late at night and normally in the middle of the cruise.

You're right!

I really enjoy the "Dancing with the Stripes" shows.

There were Guest talent shows on Song of America and Nordic Empress when we cruised out of Manhattan. John Blair was the CD on some of those. One young lady guest was an excellent pianist. On a later cruise we saw her again and found out that RCI had hired her!  

No such talent shows in our recent history.

[Truluv]

Agree - haven't seen them on RCL for many years.  I'd guess they were replaced due to a combination of lower interest and by  karaoke (and you never know what you're going to encounter at karaoke when some people think they're on Star Search LOL -- we were on one cruise where a family whipped out a guitar they had carried onboard and then wouldn't give their microphones back to the poor confused social host 😆).

There was a passenger talent show on the Vision in January.

Wish we could see pier runners.  We always hear about them but have not had the luck (for us) and misfortune (for them) to see any.  Maybe one day.

On the longer cruises...... ie more than 7 nights they always do it... from my experience.  

 

Anthem 9 night to Canada in 2016 MJ thriller flash mob

Ovation 15 night Singapore to Tianjin in 2017 MJ Thriller during talent show

Symphony 12 night TA  2018 Talent show, featuring the song from the movie greatest Showman

Ovation 16 night Sydney to Honolulu 2019, they did the talent show, but i have no idea what it was... some mashup of songs.

 

I only know this because my DW loves to dance and always packs a Thriller costume.... I think she might not any more since the last two didn’t include Thriller.

 

I think the talent show thing sucks, compared to the flash mob thriller that they did on the Anthem.

If you book a cruise where Steve Davis is the CD, you will have the Thriller dance.  😉

[xpcdoojk]

You know I never know or care who the CD is?  So will he be on the Allure or the Anthem next year?  Since those are my only two upcoming cruises.

Darn that's sad they don't have them usually.

This was our first time to see some while on the Eclipse this past April.

I have sailed with him on the Radiance (2017) and Vision (2018 & 2019).  I don't think  that he has as yet been on a larger ship.
